How to dispose of VELO nicotine pouches?

You've recently bought VELO nicotine pouches and are wondering whether the VELO pouches can be recycled? In this article, we'll explain how to dispose of VELO nicotine pouches properly.

Can VELO nicotine pouches be recycled?

After using VELO nicotine pouches, a residue of nicotine remains in the pouch, which does not allow the nicotine pouches to be recycled. This is why you should always dispose of the used nicotine pouch in the rubbish bin.

We are also exploring different materials to make nicotine pouches more durable, without compromising flavour, variety of nicotine levels and, of course, ease of use.

No bin? No problem!

If there is no bin nearby, used nicotine pouches can be temporarily stored in the storage compartment at the top of the box. When you pass by a waste bin, you can empty the lid.

The advantages of VELO nicotine pouches

VELO nicotine pouches are small, flexible pouches that contain nicotine. They are designed to be comfortably placed between the upper lip and gum. Once in place, the nicotine and flavour are gradually released. VELO nicotine pouches do not have tobacco, unlike snus.

This better alternative to a cigarette* is exclusively made up of high-quality ingredients such as water, plant-based materials, flavours, and sweeteners. This product has 99% less toxicants than a cigarette**.



*This product is not risk-free and contains nicotine, an addictive substance.

**Comparison based on an assessment of smoke from a scientific standard reference cigarette (approximately 9mg tar) and components released during use of a VELO pouch, in terms of the average of the 9 harmful components the World Health Organisation recommends to reduce in cigarette smoke.
